How to get there from here

I have provided labels to the left that will help you get to find some information in different content areas.

Math help can be found under Resources.

Language Arts and Social Studies helps can be found under Resources. The Oxford English Dictionary, Wikipedia, and others are there to help students with their school work. Check it out.

In addition, I have added a section to introduce myself and my interests. You might be tempted to say"So, that explains it!" after you read it.

Because homework is such a battle with a lot of middle schoolers, I hope to provide a place for students and parents to come for information on their work. Please click on Assignments to find out more about homeworks.

I added a section called What's Happeneing so everyone can find out what to watch out for in the future, and what we have just wound up. Information is power, and I'll try to make your very powerful!

The grade site is the main information place to be.

For information on all assignments for Mrs. Schmieding's classes, go to the grade site listed under my picture on the Monroe website staff page. You will need the student's last name and their lunch number to pull up assignments and grades. Parents and students will be able to see what is turned in, and what still needs work. For your convenience, I've listed it here for you too.

This address is case and punctuation sensitive. It must be exactly right to get there.
